Good Fun
My girlfriend and I spent many hours in college playing this game- loved the atmosphere and music. Just cheesy fun. Just spent the last couple of weeks playing with my wife (same girl!) and our daughter. It's a little dated, but we've had a great time and look forward to playing again.

FINALLY IT"S AVAILABLE
Shivers is one of those classic sierra adventure games that I grew up with. I have requested this game to be on GOG.com multiple times and I am very excited that it has been released! I no longer have to run a Win95 emulator. ;) This game is pure atmospheric fun. If you like point-and-click games like Phantasmagoria then this is a must-have title for you. The graphics are dated today but they are still pretty detailed. There are a few FMV videos in this game, though they are very few and short. This game is meant to be cheesy, spooky horror. This game isn't very difficult, but some of the puzzles in this game can be. One puzzle that sticks out to be the most difficult is one towards the end of the game. The music is perhaps the best quality of this game. I remember when Shivers 2 came out it had included a soundtrack to that game PLUS a mix of all the tracks from this first Shivers game. Each one is very unique and creepy in its own way. They will certainly haunt your head.

RIGHT Screen shots
Although I noticed that one gamer here stated that, "Wrong Screenshots by adreasnaxos The screenshots belong to SHIVERS II: HARVEST OF SOULS" I can assure that is NOT correct. 2 Involves mainly a town and its outskirts and has nothing to do with a museum. That said.... I STILL have my cd of this game as well as 2 but it won't work on my new win 10 machine (I still keep my old XP for many games which I hope they will eventually have on here.) There aren't many games on here that I don't still own in a physical Rom format. This is one of the best RPG/HOS games and was one of the front runners for the RPG/HOS genre we have today. The graphics are still stunning in my opinion and the puzzles and game play equal anything I have been buying lately. I have over a thousand games that I have bought in my 30 years of gaming and this one was good enough to rebuy in this format just to play when I feel like it on my larger screen. After almost 30 years, this game STILL rocks. :) I still prefer this one to two, but two is great and worthy of buying as well. Sierra put out a ton of great games in their career and I own probably 3/4 of what they produced and this one is at the top.

Shiver me Timbers!
So many 5 stars, and I know it why. I only gave four because... this... game... is... oh my GOD dated! Actually Im fond of the 90s I love these games (thats why I start buying games on GoG) but on the other hand I saw this game could be much more better back then. I only heard about this, never had the chance to actually try it, so actually this was may first walk in Prof WindleNUT Amazing Museum. First the postives: I like the spooky atmosphere, most of the puzzles was a great fun, every room was very unique, and the place was huge. I like how the story built together. You read something a book, added another thing from a letter, then a newspaper, until you actually understand the opening video. It was very good. And the Negs: the Museum is terrifyingly complex. I am not joking, its a fucking maze. You need at least the first 1-2 hour just to navigate in this monstre building. And the info also very huge, you maybe get 60% all of the readings from the library and the from the office. I spent actually 3-4 hours just read everything... over, and over. And since its dated, and the resolution so small, I neraly cant read key information. Some of the puzzles just to easy, or not making sense, or way too hard (chinese box, pinball fucking machine, each consumed at least 2 hours of my life, the ywere the real shivers), and Im not sure how I had guessed the correct word at the tower, by pure chance/luck. I hate the backtrackings, the animation of the shivers (even I really frightened from the first one, when I still belive this game was a horror stuff). But my greates issue with this game, the fucked up inventory system. I dont really get why they did this. Why don'T you have all pots which you find? And not just when you capture the pokemons. They even created a sanctuary for them, but you can't use that. Thank god you at least read all of your clues you already find. So this pottery business was a real adventure bugger. All in all I beat the game like 20 hours.

Stable under ScummVm and runs smoothly
This is indeed one of the best Sierra adventure games that they made. It is atmospheric and full of little details that flesh out the plot. A large part of the game is non-linear as you can choose to roam around the museum and pick your puzzles to solve or to go hunting for one of the Ixupi. The puzzles are generally clever, simpler (apart from a small handful of them) and more fun to solve than in many other big name adventure games. As the Ixupi switch locations and the pots and lids are randomly placed in the museum the game allows for some amount of different playing experience whenever you start a new game. The game manual is much more informative than that of some Sierra games, and it even includes a partial walkthrough, an overiew of the puzzles in the game and even a Making Of section. The game's ending could have been more satisfactory, even though I don't mind the plot having some loose ends untied. Highly recommended for young people who like adventure games and are interested to play a good one from your dad or mum's younger days. And definitely worth collecting for old adventure game fans who want to experience the Windelnot Museum all over again.
